[RESOLVED]I can see the bottom of the ocean

[JSpidey]

Anyone have an issue where they can see the ocean floor? Only when the sun is reflecting off the water does it look normal, looking in any other direction I can see the curves of the ocean floor.

Hi can you provide a screenshot of what you are seeing and a track replay, let us know what settings you have water on also.

 

Is it a shallow part of the water?

 

thanks

The deepest part in the DCS Oceans isn't deep at all,maybe only like 30m or something like this. Easily detectable/observable if you let your heli/aircraft sink.

It's not very deep. :)

 

 

If you do this in the middle of the Black Sea, you will drop through the ocean floor into a blue abyss and descend forever. I got to 650' before I ran out of breath.

This is what I managed to take screenshot wise, notice the colorations and how the texture of the water is almost invisible? The 4th picture is the sun reflecting off the water, which looks like how I remember it all the way around. My water setting is on low.

I would guess it’s because the water is on low and it appears that you are running zero MSAA, and zero AF from the looks of the edges of everything. You are rendering the absolute minimum amount of information so this seems like it may be normal? I’ve never tried anything but ultra on everything so I could be wrong.

MSAA is on x2 and AF is on x16, everything else is on low because I use VR

Do you have any wind in the mission?

 

If you have some wind it will get some movement going in the water, it may help with the look.

 

It looks like a nice day for fishing on a mill pond :)

I figured it out, it was just because water was on low setting. Lol, thanks for your help though guys.
